Not necessarily new to the forum but I have been away for awhile due to selling my last AMG 3 years ago. A few weeks ago though, I saw this beautiful E55 for sale and I had to pick it up. I'm really happy with the color as well; it is Teallite Blue metallic code 353U and I have not seen many E55's in this color. For now it is stock, minus the wheels that I just purchased from a member on this forum a week ago for a great deal, but I do plan on going with the Kleemann stg 1 shortly.

 

Looking good, great car..... welcome back

 

Nice EVO 9 hidden in the back. sold mine when I picked up the EVO X and that to pick up the silver Beast.
congrats.

 

Ha, good spot. The evo is the weekend fun car but it will be getting sold soon as it attracts too much negative attention from the police for being so loud with straight pipes, 35psi, and an open wastegate.

 

Nice Color!
I believe this is the 2nd one i seen today on the forums being introduced in this color.

Enjoy it in Good Health.

 

Congrats on the new car! Great color.

 

WOW, that blue is amazing!!

Never thought I would like it that much.

Tuning has jumped light years in the past couple years.

Certain tuners really putting out some good stuff!

Welcome back!

 

I hate you! And your awesome car! ;^/

Someday I will trade up!

 

Thanks for the positive feedback everybody.

I agree and another major difference that I noticed with the aftermarket selection is price. I recall a few years ago, a simple stg 1 or 2 was thousands more then it is now.

 

Are you sure this is not Platinum Blue?

 

Not entirely sure to be honest. It was advertised as wedgewood blue but is there any way to tell for sure?

 

give me your vin and I will get you a data card info on your car. can shoot it to me thru PM if you like

it will give you all the options and info on the car.

 

SEXY ...color might actually be platinum blue metallic

 

I just sent Mikeevo the VIN so hopefully we will find out for sure. From my understanding, the two colors are similar so that may be part of the illusion.

 

PM back at ya. Teallite blue Metallic 353U code.

 

Thanks Mike for the quick work. Well, as it turns out, the true color is neither wedgewood blue nor Plat. blue, but instead Teallite Blue metallic, code 353U. Is this a rare color for the E55, I've never heard of it personally.

 

I have never heard or seen that color, look nice.

 

nice purchase and great color.

 

Thanks....maybe this color will help the resell value lol

 

That is an amazing color!!

 

That's what I was thinking because it looks so close to the car in this thread here:

Mikeevo ran the VIN and the color code is teallite metallic blue.

 

Very nice!

 

That color is sweet.
